Aztecs up to 12th, 13th in hoop polls

San Diego State continues to move up the rankings in college basketball, rising to 12th in the latest ESPN/USA Today coaches' poll and 13th in The Associated Press media poll.

The Aztecs are 17-2 after winning their last nine games. They are 3-0 in the Mountain West, the lone unbeaten team in the conference.

SDSU is flying Monday to Laramie, Wyo., where the Aztecs will play Tuesday night at Wyoming. The Cowboys are 16-3 overall, 2-1 in the Mountain West and tied for second with UNLV and Colorado State. The Aztecs play on the road against the Rams on Saturday.

UNLV, a team the Aztecs defeated more than a week ago, is the only other Mountain West team in the rankings. The Rebels are No. 12 in AP, No. 15 in ESPN/USA Today.
